Encapsulation is a core concept in object-oriented programming where data and the methods that operate on that data are bundled together within a single unit, typically a class. It restricts direct access to some of an object's components, usually through access modifiers like private, protected, and public. By exposing only a controlled interface, encapsulation helps maintain data integrity, reduce dependencies, and simplify code maintenance. It also enables implementation details to change without affecting external code that relies on the public interface, thereby improving modularity, security, and reusability of software components.
